So Much Water wins Miami

Organisers at the Miami International Film Festival presented their awards on Sunday [10] prior to a screening of the documentary Venus And Serena.

“What a great way to usher in the next 30 years of film magic. We are just getting started as we celebrate the milestone of the festival’s first three decades,” said Miami Dade College president Dr Eduardo J Padrón.

“This gem of a festival will continue soaring to new heights and take its rightful place alongside the very best film festivals in the world, as we train the next generation of film-makers at MDC. I commend Jaie, his team and all the college volunteers for making this the best year ever.”

“MIFF’s 30th Anniversary edition was even more successful than we could have ever dreamed,” said MIFF executive director Jaie Laplante. “As we close this 2013 edition, we can’t help but look forward to 2014.”

“The Miami International Film Festival brings the best of world cinema to Miami, inspiring not only South Florida audiences but our growing community of filmmakers who are helping to tell Miami stories,” said Dennis Scholl, vp of arts for Knight Foundation.

“Lexus is proud to be a part of another successful competition, recognizing all nine talented filmmakers from Latin America that were nominated for the Lexus Ibero-American Opera Prima Award this year,” said Brian Smith, Lexus vp of marketing. “Lexus congratulates Guillermo and Carlos and their positive contributions to the film industry.”
